Can anyone please tell me why there have not been any cat shows in the San Francisco Bay Area? The last cat show I went to was in 2001 at the San Mateo Expo Center. I'm not saying that there haven't been ANY cat shows in California; but I haven't seen anything in the SF Bay Area for years.

Do you think it's okay for someone to publicly announce that ANOTHER person is gay? A stand-up comedienne recently outed a famous actor for being gay. AND she did it during her stand-up routine, treating it like something to be made fun of.

I personally feel that he should sue her!

I have a couple class assignments that I need to work on. I need to use a typewriter (not a computer) but an actual typewriter. I do not want to buy one; I just need to be able to use one for a small fee for maybe one or two hours.

I live in San Francisco. Does anyone know where I may be able to sit at a typewriter station and use a typewriter without having to buy one?

BTW, I already called Kinko's and Office Depot and neither place provides that.

I need to do a report that's due 9/15. We're to pick a culture and write a paper. I chose to do mine on Greece (because Hippocrates was Greek and a lot of medical terminology has its roots in the Greek language). This is for a health care class.

A couple things I need to put in my report are:

1) What unique features would have an impact on communication?

2) What unique features would have an impact on the delivery of health care?

Can anyone advise me on a few good websites to go to? If you know of any good books, that would help to.

Thanks!

When staffing agencies like OfficeTeam don't even TRY to help you find employment. There must be some government agency that you can at least file a report with (even if nothing can actually be done).

I live in San Francisco, CA. Does anyone know to whom I can send an anonymous email. Maybe there are other people who've complained about OfficeTeam?

Ok, I know that they are one of the WORST things you can eat and are so bad FOR you.

Yet they are soooooo GOOD!

I LOVE them! Even the plain UNspicy ones!

Any thoughts?

....when part of a job posting says, "All candidates must be bondable" ?

.....should you contact them once a week, twice a week, or EVERY day?

My agencies have done VERY little to help me, and it's NOT that I'm a bad candidate.

I'm starting to think that I should call them up (on the phone) every day and be a total pest so that they'll give me more jobs just to shut me up! Also, when they tell me they don't have anything at that time, I feel like asking them, "Are you SURE? Are you looking in your system right now? Could you PLEASE check?"

Or will that only make it worse?

A friend of mine had a cat who recently died. She says he died of a "broken heart" when she was in jail for 3 days. However, this cat was also obese! I tried to gently tell her that it could have been a congenative heart condition or something like that. But no, she insists that it was a broken heart (as if she has any veterinary experience). I'm not even going to DARE suggest that it was his weight; she'll go totally POSTAL on me!

Also, she now has a new kitty (about 5 or 6 mo. old). She REFUSES to have him FIXED!!! She says it will change his personality!

Suggestions?

..... stick their wittle tushies in the air when you pet them?

.... for implying that people don't care enough about their cats to take them straight to the vets when something critical is happening with their cats. Obviously, they DO care, or else they wouldn't even be asking for advice. Our family has had pets in the past (both dogs and cats) and we know how expensive veterinary care can be. I also should have realized that often when people are posting these questions, that the vet's office may not be open at that time and that they DO have every INTENTION of taking their pet to the vet as soon as they can.

I'm VERY sorry if I caused any hurt feelings. Especially to the stay-at-home mom who said that they were taking their cat to the vet, but he died. Ma'am, I am TRULY sorry for your loss and that I offended you.

People, I had absolutely NO right, whatsoever, to pass judgement on anyone.

........instead of taking their cats/kittens to the vet? I mean if I had a cat and if he/she were throwing up blood or had a lump, I would not waste ANY time on Yahoo! Answers. I would take my cat straight to the vet.

I'm sorry if I sound harsh, but Come On! A lot of these situations are such that if proper veterinary attention isn't given fast (even immediately), the cat could actually die!
